Preparation of the no-bowl apple cake
First, clean the apples: remove the peel and core and cut them into pieces. Gather them in a bowl. Add the grated zest of a well-washed organic lemon and the strained juice. Set them aside.
Grease a pan (8×10 inches). Sift in the flour and baking powder. Add sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Start mixing the dry ingredients and first add the water, then the oil, working with a hand whisk until you have a smooth mixture. Finish with the apples and mix well.
Sprinkle the surface with the sliced almonds and bake in a fan oven at 356°F for about 40 minutes. Remove from oven and after unmolding, sprinkle with powdered sugar.
Storage
The cake keeps for two or three days under a glass dome.
